    First Martians arrived yesturday. Fuck the guy can't write a rule book to save himself. Had to abandon the game because was flicking through the rules too much. Hopefully some how to play videos come out soon.

    Soccer 2017-2018

    A new season is upon us and already it's shaping up as one of the craziest, at least in terms of spending. Already some huge transfers have been done and it looks like many more are on the way. I've no idea if this works for other coutries and teams but I use Soccer news, video highlights...

    The Documentary Thread

    I saw a preview to An Inconvenient Sequel last night. Not nearly as informative as the first one, though it shows quite a lot of how the extremes of climate change are becoming more prominent. Covers some of the more promising aspect, such as the uptake of solar far out stripping the wild...

    75m for Lukaku is pretty crazy. And even losing him, Everton will be one of the teams to watch next season, imo

    Off to bordercon this weekend, 4 days gaming convention on the state border, about 4 hours away. 3rd year I've been and it's awesome fun. In some ways it's better the local ones since you're out of town and focused on gaming without the usual distractions at home. Highly recommend people to go...

    16 pages a year is pretty decent and page one usually includes some year specific info like fantasy team leagues and tipping comps. I'm happy with new thread each year

    Damn you, I'm trying to but back on my board game purchases! But looks like an easy by. Love a good coop game that's simple or friendly enough to play with non-gamers.

    Descent it is probably what you're after, or Imperial the Assault if you'd prefer the same thing with a star war theme. Mice and Mystics is good too and more kid friendly if you need that. Gloomhaven is also a good option, though hard to get at the moment.

    I usually end up trying to help whoever might win just to end the game quicker. Been stuck in too many gamnes of it that have just stretched out way past it being fun.

    Pretty great game. If you're crafty at all, its worth the effort to make magnetized version of the player mats, for the production amounts at least. Just print a new copy, put a strip of metal behind it, another piece of paper at the back and laminate.

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

    Yeah, have to agree. It was like one of those terrible sequels where they focus so much on what worked in the original (groot, random humour) that it ruins it. Such a let down after the first one. The first had it's fair share of plot holes but it was easy to ignore them because it was so damn...

    It's a combination of storage boxes, like plano boxes I think, that I got from my local $2 shop. Has to modify them a little to make them work well, but now it's nicely done and works well in setting up and using while playing. Still need to fix a couple of things though.

    Yeah, pretty sure you can rule the young lady out completely if she'd be in a 5 player game. While turns are speeding up for us, there's still a fair wait to the point where my partner reads a book and does work. Admittedly she's lost interest in competing in the game generally and is focused on...

    Survivor

    I always wonder when they start talking about how someone, like Caleb, is strong and will help with the challenges, no one points out that he's been on the losing end of three challenges in a row. Can't help but think he's just shit at the game.

    Yep, codenames is definitely one you want to adjust and house rule to make it smoother for the players you have. Also, beware of Codenames: Deep Undercover. While the idea of an adults version with lots of innuendos is pretty cool, the result is a game where so many of the words are closely...

    Champions of Midgard isn't too bad but feels like a watered down version of Stone Age or Lords of Waterdeep. Just lacks that little bit more depth to it. I much prefer Raiders of the North Sea, another viking worker placement game, but with a unique mechanic that makes it stand out...

    Yep, looks awesome. Can't wait to play it. I ended up playing through PL twice since I got it as birthday present. Was still great experience though I had to step back and not offer any advice on what the rest the group should do since it was there first time.

    We're going a game every fortnight, which helps prevent it turning into a chore or making it tedious for some of the players. 3 of us are fighting for the top, always competing for winning each game, while 2 have dropped off. Not sure how they'll be able to catch up. Still enjoying the game but...

    would love to see Leicester win the champions league while at the same time being relegated. Just for the lols, don't have anything against them and was pretty happy to see them win last season.
